Fun game but too hard for me

This is a fun game but I gave up on it towards the beginning when I couldn't beat one of the levels. It's a pretty difficult game, if you ask me.







Near Perfect.....

A masterpiece. You must get Ninja Gaiden and Dragon Sword, NG Black, NG Sigma, and Ninja Gaiden 2 for the 360.

You will never play a better series. Period.







The ones who rate this game five stars are the same ones trying to resell it.

Don't believe the crap that they try to sell you here.
The reason that its getting so many stars is because they're trying to sell it back and get rid of it, and I'll tell you why.

First off, the graphics are nothing special. The camera angle is just flat out piss pore. You have to fight the camera every step of the way, throughout the game. (You'll know what I mean if you go and play it.)The options menu doesn't help ether, when you go to change the controls on your controller it just makes it harder if anything.

The level settings are also a complete failure, you'll die at least 30 times just to get to the second level, while the setting is on easy. You can take my word on that.

Throughout the game your in a constant state of fighting an uphill battle, your constantly out numbered, your usually almost dead at the end of every battle.

You will say to yourself at times; "How can anyone play this game on a hard level and actually win?"

The level that I made it to was a boss on a horse that constantly had men showing up, is just impossible to beet. After that I just quit the game.

In a nutshell:
The the fighting engine is awful.
The camera angles are a never ending struggle.
Option menu is useless.
And the pressure just continues as you go on. The harder it gets, the less you want to play it.

Unless if you get joy out of yelling at your TV all the time. Do NOT buy or even rent this game. This game is increasingly stressful and you will find NO rest or fun in this game at all.







Ninja Gaiden

This game is very interesting and challenging game. It makes you want to investigate and search for all you need to overcome and find what you need to be victorious. Is exciting and the different scenes can be a challenge to discover the path to the end of the journey.I can just immerse myself in the world of the ninja as I play. In all the game is fun to play.
